Alamy search function

[Rob B]

I tried to do a search for one of my recently accepted photos. The first search search I did was a fairly general search term, so about 20 pages showed up, so I narrowed down the search but still couldn’t find my picture, even by using all the search tags. Eventually I used the caption that I supplied (Balwen Welsh Mountain Sheep if anyone’s interested) and that returns just one page with only a few pictures but mine isn’t among them.

 

I only added the tags earlier today. Does it take a while for them to show up or am I doing something wrong?

Yes Rob. It takes an overnight server update before the engine finds your images. Sometimes two updates, they will eventually show up.

You need to be patient with Alamy. It is a waiting game all the way.
